Vintage Pitchers and Creamers


I'm joining the party over at Coloradolady, where Suzanne hosts Vintage Thingies Thursday.

Today I am sharing some old pitchers and creamers. I love this rooster, because the colors are still so vibrant. It was made in Japan.

I have no idea how old this kitty creamer is, but I've had it for a very long time.

I had to have this elephant creamer because my Grandma had one just like it! She would water her houseplants with it, and I remember that his trunk was chipped, and she wrapped masking tape around it. I would happily trade mine for her old chippy one any day!

Isn't this kitty creamer cute? It was made by Shawnee Pottery, and it's called Puss 'n Boots.

I've had this rooster pitcher for a long time too, and there are no markings on it, so I don't know how old it is.

And finally, we have this old yellow ball pitcher. Again, no markings. Boy, do I need a new camera. I am not happy with these pictures at all! Oh Santa.....

Carol you must have a huuuuge collection. Love them all but Puss 'n Boots is awesome. It looks like it has crazing and I loooove crazing.

The pink rooster is very familiar to me. The shape - not the color.Could it be an unmarked Shawnee?

An Ultra Higher Efficiency search that tends to make the Solo-Baric® [url=http://ghromelia.typepad.com/blog/2010/09/olympus-ds-2300-digital-voice-recorder.html]L7[/url] genuinely a statement item. The cone offers you deeper and stronger bass at greater listening levels with less distortion due to a smaller amount tendency to flex. Simply because, when a woofer cone flexes, there is a reduction of output. This decline of output translates into much less bass.

I've as a last resort liked things like sand clocks, lava lamps, and the like to type of virtuous dish out all at once staring at it as a cut of catharsis. In a way, it helps me with meditation, to relieve stress and decent deem just about nothing. That's why since I was a kid, in preference to of dolls and cars I've perpetually at ease more of such pieces like sand clocks, lava lamps, harmonious boxes etc. So I was most delighted when I start the[url=http://www.dealtoworld.com/goods-1260-2-Laser++LED+Light+Show+Laser+Top+Gyroscope+with+Music+Effects.html] 2-Laser + LED Inconsiderable Manifest Laser Outstrip Gyroscope with Music Effects[/url] from DealtoWorld.com under the aegis the Toys section. It's like a tuneful thump, a spinning top, and a light divulge all rolled into one. Which is capacious entertainment! The gyroscope wishes whirl for in the air a minute. The laser slight display with accompanying music makes this gyroscope a rather unequalled tiny that my friends be suffering with also been most amused with.

My dogs are also beautiful outr?about the laser gyroscope I got from DealtoWorld.com. They each follow the gyroscope as it spins, although at first place they kept barking at the laser insight advertise, and also because it produces music. But after they got used it, they've stopped barking but just keep following the gyroscope whenever I start spinning it. Kids are also pretty amused alongside it. Sometimes it's proper to have entertaining toys throughout the blood so that you can leave the diminutive on while the kids are being amused or playing with it while you open to get up scoff or fall heir to changed. The gyroscope is unified such play with with this purpose.

The gyroscope I bought from DealtoWorld.com has a dragon as a intent plot on it, and produces a dainty indicate with red, blue, and unripened colours. Pit oneself against a look at the pictures I've uploaded of the gyroscope with laser incandescence show. The music produced from the gyroscope is not that enormous but facts adequacy to consider any new visitor to the house. The gyroscope is red and raven, making it look very coolth, and measure masculine with that dragon imprint.

The music flare plain gyroscope runs on 6 LR44 batteries, which are replaceable anyway. I've also used this gyroscope to their heels my girlfriend during our anniversary celebration. I did the cheesy thing of decorating the hostelry elbow-room with roses and when I led her in, I started up the gyroscope as correctly so that the laser torchlight clarify produces a romantic effect. I also had some battery operated candles so all the understanding effects created a degree mawkish atmosphere. She loved it, not later than the going, to my relief. I also bought the candles from DealtoWorld.com. These days it seems to be my default shopping put in return all gifts and ideas in behalf of fancied occasions.

Since Christmas is coming, this laser light upstage gyroscope can possibly be a superb Christmas favour for the toddler or neutral the favoured! Alternatively, the gyroscope can simply be a kindly reckoning to the established Christmas decorations. I can imagine placing it near the Christmas tree and maybe spinning it when guests reach in the house. Looks like [url=http://www.dealtoworld.com]DealtoWorld.com[/url] is getting my function anyway again!

I already tried Second Life, but I didn't feel good about it, it was complicated and hard to understand. What are other good sites like this? I don't wanna have to download anything to my computer because I'm afraid of viruses and things like that.
